Place the scallops on a large plate and sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of the sugar. Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over high heat. Add the scallops, sugared-side down, and cook for 2 minutes. Sprinkle with 2 teaspoons of the remaining sugar, turn and cook for 1-2 minutes or until caramelised and cooked through. Transfer to a plate.

Step 2

Add the prosciutto to the pan and cook for 1 minute each side or until crisp. Remove from heat.

Step 3

Combine the remaining sugar, oil and lime juice in a small bowl.

Step 4

Arrange the mango and onion on serving plates. Top with the scallops, chilli and prosciutto, and drizzle with the lime dressing. Sprinkle with coriander leaves and serve immediately.

Made this for Christmas morning, very tasty, and easy to put together. A hit with all the family. This recipe is a keeper.

Made this for a romantic dinner with my darling- a big hit with us both! A beautiful blend and balance of flavour.

I made this for my wife for valentines day - a couple of get out of jail free cards for this one! As she said "this salad combines my 3 favourite things". This salad is best enjoyed when you combine all the ingredients into a single bite - a fantastic combination.
Also, its so easy to make this salad look just like the photo (something which I often struggle to do) just by taking a bit of care.
2 thumbs up!
